Velociraptor Sep 2011 10:50am, 6 Sep 2011 17,168 posts	0 Velociraptor Is Eggbert going to wear a lot of purple?
mad4purple Sep 2011 10:59am, 6 Sep 2011 32,497 posts	0 mad4purple Some purple but not loads. If I only dress her in purple she may come to hate the colour when older, obviously that would be a BAD thing.
Velociraptor Sep 2011 11:00am, 6 Sep 2011 17,171 posts	0 Velociraptor Whereas if she sees YOU dressed in purple, it'll be something for her to aspire to
mad4purple Sep 2011 11:02am, 6 Sep 2011 32,498 posts	0 mad4purple I must admit, I don't wear as much now as I used to, mind you I can't quite compare maternity clothes to my normal clothes can I?! I'll need a new wardrobe once Eggbert is here due to the weight loss I've had, so will be mixing it up a little
